Answer:
Overwhelmingly rural, North Carolinian's were isolated from the world around them, as well as each other, by geographical barriers, limited means of transportation, and their own independent spirit. However "backward" and "indolent," most Tar Heels had a more discerning, if not more favorable, view of their lifestyle and themselves. Times were hard; there is no doubt. Days were long and rewards were slight. Yet an increasing number of Carolinian had succeeded in purchasing their own farms.

Dr. Azure is conducting a research in the area of psychophysics. Psychophysics is described to be a branch of psychology where it deals with the relationship of a mental phenomena and as well as the physical stimuli that Dr. Azure is doing above in the scenario.
The explanation of the situation presented above, is related to the concept of memory and the different types that compose the human mind:
- Sensory memory captures impressions of stimulus collected through the five senses. It retains information for less than one second. If this info wants to be stored in longer lasting memory areas, it has to be elaborated.
- Working or short-term memory, retains the elaborated info that was acquired through the senses and momentarily kept by the sensory memory. This <u>elaboration consists on the application of techniques such as repetition (the one used in the example)</u>, or codification, etc. It allows to keep info for around one minute. If wanting to retain it indefinitely, more complex processes need to be undertaken so that the info ends up being part of our knowledge structures and stored in the long-term memory forever.
Based on the scenario, the one that you should present your ideas to is : a member of the house
